Contemporary pilgrim Peter Stanford visits some of the most ancient religious sites in Britain, taking the spiritual temperature of our apparently secular and sceptical age.
“'Stanford's sometimes humorous account of these evocative places, and of the present-day pilgrims who visit them, comprises an intriguing investigation of what faith might mean in our apparently secular age.” – London Review of Books
“A highly illuminating study...his selection may be domestic but it is by no means parochial...Particularly welcome is his ability to laugh at himself.” – The Independant
“Stanford offers a personal and at the same time historical and geographical investigation into what he sees as a deeply ingrained spirituality in Britain.” – John Cornwell, The Financial Times
